The project is Novera’s largest development to date, with a budget of £38.5m. The bulk of financing came from a project finance facility with Fortis Bank.

Electricity output will go to Scottish and Southern Energy (SSE).

Novera Chief Executive David Fitzsimmons says: “This is a significant milestone for the business and a testament of our ability to deliver through our experience and capabilities in development, financing, construction and operations.”
